Abstract
An orientation control system for an agricultural implement includes a first sensor configured to be positioned at a forward end portion of a frame of the agricultural implement. The first sensor is configured to emit a first output signal toward a soil surface and to receive a first return signal indicative of a first height of the frame. The orientation control system also includes a second sensor configured to be positioned at a rearward end portion of the frame. The second sensor is configured to emit a second output signal toward the soil surface and to receive a second return signal indicative of a second height of the frame. In addition, the orientation control system includes a controller configured to control a first actuator and a second actuator such that a difference between the first height and the second height is less than a threshold value.
